Interesting I loved my little salad (unlike Speedbird676 above) but I think we all agree the puddings are delicious! Bread an improvement too!
Almost identical to the above on my flight to Milan yesterday. Choice of beef or chickpea salad. I went with the beef and rather enjoyed it. Good quantity of nicely rare beef, tasty courgette and pepper ‘salsa’ and pleasant char-grilled mini corn and asparagus. I thought the horseradish was just right for a mass-market dish, personal preference aside. On this band 2 we got some protein with the starter, a largish prawn with some sauce marie rose under the lettuce. It was tasty, but calling it a starter really is stretching a bit far, more amuse bouche tbh. The bread roll (identical to the above) was v tasty and served warm. I’d have been happy with it in any middle of the road restaurant. The chocolate mousse and raspberry compote dessert was delish! All in all I was v happy with the catering improvements. The main wasn’t that big, but when added with everything else, was sufficient for a shortish band 2. Coffee a giant leap forward as well.
